Short Sale success story

Spiro and his team guided my wife and me though very treacherous legal waters as we negotiated with Chase to either refinance or Short Sell our primary residence. We first tried to refinance our home due to a financial hardship. But Chase simply refused to concede anything that would assist with ...our situation. So after almost 2 years of getting no cooperation from Chase, Spiro suggested that the Short Sale option could be a good one for us…and he was absolutely correct! Thanks to his diligence and that of his team we successfully navigated every artificial hurdle Chase put in our way. Yet through all this -- and I cannot over-emphasize the challenges we had with Chase -- Spiro and his team not only brought our case to a successful conclusion but were able to negotiate a significant financial incentive that my wife and I now enjoy. If you think you have need for a legal team to represent you, look no further: Spiro and his folks are the ones you want. They will stick to the case like glue and battle on your behalf! Many thanks guys --you’re the best!

Professional Service With Results

My experience with this law firm was great. They were very professional, prompt, accessible and friendly. And most importantly, they were successful in my short sale. Almost every time I called their office I got the right person to answer all my questions and give me updates on progress. I recomm...end this law firm to anyone wanting to do a short sale!

"Spiro and I worked out a dispute between our respective clients prior to litigation so everyone ended up with a win-win without both our clients becoming heavily invested in litigation with a prevailing party fee provision. Throughout, he was professional while being an advocate for his client's position. I endorse Mr. Komninos."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I had the privelege of working with Spiro at a prior law firm. He was intelligent, business savy, and a great tactician. All vital traits to a business lawyer, or any lawyer for that matter. He was also one of the hardest working lawyers I have known. He was almost always the last or one of the last attorneys to leave the building. Since we both left that firm I have had the honor of working with him on several litigation matters. His intellect and energy are both extraordinary. I have seen that he cares about his clients and getting results, not just about generating fees. He is a credit to our profession, and I look forward to working with him as often as possible."
